What is Black Friday?

Black Friday comes the day after Thanksgiving and is generally considered the start of the Christmas shopping season. Since the 1950s it’s grown and grown to become the biggest day in the commercial calendar for retailers, and combined with Cyber Monday which follows it, it’s the best weekend to start looking for some bargain deals.

When is Black Friday 2024?

Black Friday is on November 29, while Cyber Monday falls on December 2 2024.

Outdoor Retailers with Black Friday 2024 Gear Deals

All the big outdoor retailers are putting on gear deals, and some have even been putting discounts on products weeks before Black Friday. These are just some of the outdoor shops and retailers putting on Black Friday deals.

Mammut

Save an extra 10% when you purchase 3 or more items with code BF10.

While there’s some top of the line outdoor clothing here to browse, there’s also some epic deals on outdoor equipment. Including discounted hiking backpacks, there’s also more technical gear like climbing helmets, harnesses and rope up for grabs, as well as high-end avalanche equipment such as probes and transceivers.

Helly Hansen

Over at Helly Hansen, the Men’s Verglas Infinity Shell Jacket 2.0 at £243.75 looks very attractive, as well as the Men’s Verglas Polar Down Jacket at £300.00. They also have 25% off sitewide.

We checked out the Verglas Infinity back in 2021, and from what we can tell, the Infinity 2.0 looks to be just as impressive. It’s great to see they’ve still included a large amount of recycled materials too, as well as a PFC-free DWR.

Berghaus

Berghaus are offering up to 60% off sitewide with code EXTRA10 – the excellent Deluge Pro 3.0 Waterproof Jacket is a mere £96.

From around-the-town fleeces and tees, to high-tech outdoor insulation; there’s something for absolutely everyone in this black friday sale. We’ve got our eyes on that Deluge Pro 3.0 though which includes more than 75% recycled content and more than 90% bluesign® APPROVED fabric.  Pretty cool if you ask us.

Tentbox

Have a strong offer on, with more than 15% off selected models, including the Tentbox Lite 2.0 and Tentbox XL.

In fact, we took a look at the Tentbox XL earlier this year and were very impressed. Editor Will called it ‘a fun, well-made and seemingly long-lasting bit of kit that, I can say from personal experience, does create a memorable, enjoyable and very comfortable holiday.’

Amazon

Outdoors Magic’s very own list of best Amazon deals on a vast range of gear, from stocking fillers to rucksacks, walking trousers and other outdoor gear goodies galore. There’s a little something for all the family members this year (even the ones you don’t like)!

Rohan

The outdoor and travel experts have a Black Friday offer of 20% off everything, as well as free delivery on orders over £50. This sale looks to be a good one for getting all that outdoor clothing – particularly layers – that you’ve been holding off on updating for years.

Columbia

A massive 50% off in some cases and 30% off winter gear is on offer at Columbia.

Like Rohan, these guys have clothing options galore. There seems to be some pretty epic-looking ski/snow gear this year though, including sturdy winter boots and some very cute snow onesies for the kids.

Ellis Brigham

The respected UK retailer is offering an enormous discount of up to 50% off North Face gear. It’s got pretty much all the winter gear you need for your next alpine adventure, including all the impressive TNF technologies such as FUTURELIGHT, DryVent, FlashDry, and more.

Snow and Rock

Another well-regarded outdoor retailer has an impressive discount of up to 50% off all outdoor gear. It’s worth checking out their environment criteria too – they’ve got some pretty great initiatives available involved recycling your gear, extending the life of your kit through repairs, and more.

Decathlon

Alps-based brand Decathlon is offering a considerable discount of up to 50% off Black Friday Deals plus Free Standard Delivery on selected products. All the good stuff.
